       oil leak Z3300
       By: Randy Date: June 14, 2017, 7:00 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Hi,
       I have a Homelite Z3300. It has a terrible oil leak which
       appears to be coming form the oil intake tube, just under the
       muffler. Is that a common problem?  I looked to replace it but
       it appears that that part is no longer available. It looks like
       you need to pry it out.  Not sure if its repairable.  The bar
       oil just leaks past the part that goes into the oil tank.
       nothing comes out of the oil tube which lubes the chain.  I
       appreciate any help.
       Randy

       Failing that, you could always get a grommet the right size for
       the hole in the tank and use a piece of rubber fuel line.
